Corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH) also known as corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF) or corticoliberin is a 41-amino acid peptide derived from a 196-amino acid preprohormone. CRH belongs to corticotropin-releasing factor family and is secreted by the paraventricular nucleus (PVN) of the hypothalamus in response to stress.
